Hi all, How can we select between coordinate system for assigning the constraints. i.e i have created a cylindrical co ordinate system by (1D---->System----->create) & assigned to the nodes to be constrained by (1D---->System----->assign)and i want to assign constraints to my component based on the cylindrical co-ord sys which i hav created but when i go to the constraints i can find only the DOF1 to 6 which was initially there and which denotes the global coordinate system and i couldnt find any place to switch over between the global and local coordinate system.

 

Finding the place to change over between Global and Local coordinates in the constraints page will help me out from this problem.

 

 

i have attached the constraints------>create, constraints------>update, but in both page i cant find any place to switch over to a local coordinate system
